It happened today 8/22/07

Well, Happy Birthday Therese! That is a special day! Truthfully, I am so exhausted from all this exercise that I won't be doing any celebrating today!

YEAH Wanda, Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So...What are you doing to "treat" yourself ????

I'm thinking of baking a chocolate cake. Oh no, that was me before wls! I'm leaving for my long awaited cruise in a couple of weeks. That will be my treat. I promised myself that I would be VERY active on this cruise. I plan on snorkeling, climbing to the top of a water fall, and walking through the Myan ruins. I wanted to go zip-lining but I was voted down!

Wanda!!! I teared up when I read this post!!!!! I am sooooooo happy for you!!! It is such a BIG deal! Celebrate girl .... YOU HAVE A NORAML BMI 8) 8) Hugs, Britt

I was so afraid to step on the scale this morning because I have a tendency to bounce back up after I hit a new low. But I am 1/2 pound more normal today than yesterday. So I'm still barely normal--but normal all the same! (At least buck naked and first thing in the morning!)

Wanda, how wonderful to have a normal BMI!!!!! That is a milestone that is/will be very meaningful for everyone on this November board and every board on OH. You've REACHED it!! I know you have been very frustrated with the scale moving slowly lately but everytime I look at your avatar, I always think how beautiful you are, how good you look and how many children and grandchildren you have! In addition to all your other blessings (your wonderful prince, your precious children and grandchildren, your lovely property and gardens and traveling, you have worked hard for a new healthy, fit body with a NORMAL BMI!!! You deserve it!!! Enjoy your cruise!

Frustrated is right! I started the month at 146. Normal BMI for me is 145. I bounced around all month (going as high as 148.5!) I joined a new gym and body became confused with the different classes that I'm taking so it decided to let lose of a little weight. Thank you for all of the kind words and encouragement. Life IS good and I'm enjoying it so much since wls. I feel like my true self has finally emerged.

Hey Wanda, I'd take normal any way I could get it! Buck naked, 1st thing in the morning is my DH's DREAM COM TRUE! LOL Hope you have great success the rest of the month. Hugs, Val

Congratulations Wanda, I know you have been waiting for this one for a while. Christy
